    Hiking

    The hut at the Buckerborn source is designated as a refuge by the Niederheimbach Tourist Office, but it is completely closed.
    A stone table with a bench and wooden blocks is available under a canopy as a dry place to sit. The eponymous spring gushes out of a stainless steel pipe into a trough and then crosses the path as a stream.

    Hiking

    The hut is not accessible and the surrounding area is quite run down.

    Fresh spring water for replenishment. However, you need some patience, especially in dry times.
